Carly walked in through 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOPGbHFhV6
the front door, exhausted. She had too many bags in her hands and her 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQEOCpKhxE
feet were already giving her hell since she wore high heels.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZVhqTgd8J
One of the helpers, a female, came just in time to help her with her bags. Carly couldn't help but feel relieved.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADIhRit69J
"Please take them up to my room," said Carly after handing them over. The helper made her way up the stairs.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UCzFCoBfw
"I see you're back from shopping," said Amanda as she appeared in the foyer in her wheelchair.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODnxUFfnyZ
Carly smiled. "Yes, I am," she said. "How have you been?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjtA0XWgLK
"Never better, dear. Where is Diana? I thought she was with you."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLCeptzB8i
"She had something to do at the salon and told me to come here."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBIVkUPqyZ
"Have you already eaten lunch?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfKkHWGRVj
"Yes, we ate at a restaurant."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi2XxGkTeN
"Looks like the shopping did you good."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3fGKZVtVN
"Yes, well, a lot has happened these past few days that I really needed this."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpeNjxuaJm
"Mmm," Amanda gave Carly a smile. "I can tell. Nice heels by the way."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7Sm5mUTba
"Thanks," Carly smiled at her.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWE4Uy73xj2
"If you need Angel, she's in the study."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSFKpKqSMn
"In the study?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ldy9g3zKA
"The study downstairs. She was a little bored and didn't want to watch TV, so she decided to spend her time with a book."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHpDgED1wu
"She's like that. Always a bookworm." Carly turned around to close the door behind her.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmSGi0tQ36
"You should also be on your books, don't you think?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwblfIihrrp
Carly looked at Amanda and wondered what to say. She could even feel her cheeks blush.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUfSoPIkxb
"I know you're supposed 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlYaD0rSt6
to be at college," said Amanda as she chuckled when she noticed Carly 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1oZJPn2ME
blush. "But it's okay. It's Friday anyway and considering what's been 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA0arhw20o
going on, it was good you went out to get yourself distracted."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZEudFqsQb
Carly felt herself 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJG2WazoZw
relax. Amanda was only pulling her leg. She didn't like anyone telling 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VyKi9dDay
her that she had to go for lectures. She knew that already. And she 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gyPjUwfhf
wasn't going to be comfortable if someone who was not her sister told 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaG7vomSgW
her that.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiBkJaaYFg
"I better go and see Angel," said Carly.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeZzctM7jQ
"You go do that," said Amanda, "I think I'll go and entertain myself with some soap opera on TV."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBvjcZ962h
Just before the two 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41333bJtB4
could part ways, Mrs McDonell came down the stairs, talking and laughing911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCwV65NLop
loudly on her iPhone. When she reached the bottom, she cut the call.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBdpcy9ePk
"I see you're back," said Mrs McDonell as she looked at Carly.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZ6ZGoJ7mM
"Yes, I am," Carly answered.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoVf6fqOQC
"Nice heels," Mrs McDonell raised an eyebrow towards Carly's pink heels. "Did Diana chose them for you?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4ltuNNrFd
"Oh, no, I picked them myself."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WpnfOPilU
"Nice. You've good taste. I hope your sister does too."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmm21lPWaB
"Oh, she does. You have seen nothing yet. Wait until she gets better."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgo0f2m2uHq
"Can't wait." Mrs McDonell tried to smile but it came out dry.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ujo7xx0xT
"I better go and check on Angel," said Carly.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1oQibJFya
Carly went on her way 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZEJXOi2PT
taking the left side of the foyer and into the hall where Angel and 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTKiptnplS
Amanda's room were. It also led to the study she just found out about 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjx9pjShes
from Amanda.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYYSBBYSzv
She was within earshot of the two ladies who remained in the foyer when she heard Mrs McDonell saying:911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDkyHCwL7P
"Kim will be coming for dinner today. I invited her."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1q3DafOCBQ
"You really want Leo to be mad at you, don't you?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdw8Tm2Q5G
Carly couldn't hear 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpj7KMQlyQ4
their conversation any more when she turned round the corner after 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuMVpyobqe
bypassing the two bedrooms and found a huge large mahogany door at the 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvO85mcp2Tf
end of the hall. She guessed that it might be the study.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6fLeOzgTz
Before she could get to 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRhKcPYZNH
the door, she wondered what the two women were talking about. It 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TAWdr0p0k
intrigued her in some way because it concerned Leo.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcRv5JkEPO
She opened the door to 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo09ZL9j4Sx
the study and was greeted by the sight of shelves filled with books. The911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0Q7heXdjU
room looked cosy though. The brown coffee carpet and the empty 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LCmwcGrOT
fireplace with cosy brown couches next to the fireplace gave a warm 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJVdIGKsXh
feeling. There was a huge glass window overlooking the garden outside 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknd1RtqIFx
and just in front of the window was Angel in her wheelchair. She sat 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYweBqR2Iy
facing the windows but her face was on the book in her hand. She looked 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8ioks1Xgi
taken away with what she was reading because she hadn't heard the door 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LVKWPVWwT
to the study open nor Carly approaching her from behind.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQ9eOPLBVC
"Hey, sis," said Carly when she reached out to Angel slowly and placed her hand on Angel's shoulder.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGUH6rsDkj
Angel looked up from the book she was reading and at her sister. She didn't seem startled.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwi0NV2Dg8
"You're back," said Angel. She sounded blunt. "How was the mall?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQfwccaMpd
"It was great," Carly answered with glee like a little child.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0udxKDGW1i
Angel tried to give a slight smile but failed. "Glad you had fun."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ljabHEmmG
"How has been your day?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWAzgGlbQM
Carly asked as she went over to an office desk at the corner of the 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a0F2g0OSc
room next to the huge glass window and took a chair, came back and sat 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBABtmtKxX
facing her sister.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRK0FMUvCYJ
"It was okay, I guess," Angel shrugged her shoulders.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDA2MdGE7e
"You didn't have another fight with Leo, did you?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8JFwXlmFG
Angel furrowed her eyebrows as she looked at Carly. "And why do I want to pick a fight with him?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0M0pUH08c2
"You look irritated. That's why I asked."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0whQuujzub
Angel faced the glass 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvNRfcegjC
window. "You know he and I can't fight each other within the four walls 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuHwkDz4K7
of this house. We were with Amanda almost the whole time."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJcWtzcPHp
"You were?" Carly sounded surprised. "How did the two of you handle each other with her around?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJYwzwu0Rx
"We didn't. Immediately she left we had a chat. And it wasn't a good one."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwTrOz468h
"Okay, I am not ready to hear what you two had to say since I know it concerns me."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJKdYj33Vn
Angel rolled her eyes. She didn't say a word more as she went back to her book.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcDfjcTto4
"I heard these two women, Amanda and Mrs McDonell talking just now," said Carly changing the topic.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5nirLFOqv
"You know I'm not in the mood to gossip," Angel answered, her eyes still on the book.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyR6quiHpGO
Carly didn't listen to her sister as she continued, "I heard them talking about Leo. And someone called Kim."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vcYv4YlWZ
"Kim happens to be the woman Leo was supposed to marry."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ROvaWIGrX
Carly's mouth fell open 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuv4zmSv7f
as she had a surprised look on her face. She looked at Angel, who 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUPu5aVIOM
happened to be still looking at her book and not at her sister.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9JpWGZShb
"Are you serious? You must be joking," said Carly as she shook her head and tried to laugh like it was funny.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AiottnRwt
"Do you think I would 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnIzznD9kw
lie to you?" This time, Angel turned to look at Carly. "If you hadn't 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7B1AABsHSg
gone out to the mall, maybe you would have heard it for yourself."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ukn5JroCI
"You sound like going to the mall is a bad thing."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprRMLBnxpz
"For you, yes because 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhnpcsSRHn
you were just from mourning. I know we have to try and distract 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjnMAtfxda
ourselves from our mother's passing, but did you seriously have to go to911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYJusDkdzb
the mall?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU21XTzo1ms
"Sorry, I couldn't help myself. It was fun though. Look at the amazing heels I got."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9P4hZ8tJi9
Carly gestured towards her feet with a grin on her face. Angel looked down at the heels. She sighed and shook her head.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLFp11cc6n
"Are you really not listening to me or what?" Angel asked. "You should be worried."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2EaD3H3ZV
"Worried about what?" Carly instantly stopped smiling.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKk94wJHGV
"About Kim. I feel she is really going to cause trouble for us if we ever get to meet her in person."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsBBQJV2t0
"Well, she's coming over so, I guess you'll be worried."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYW5Qvi47I
"She's coming here?" Angel couldn't believe what she was hearing.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRYKEI6dqJ
"I heard Mrs McDonell say that she invited her here for dinner. Amanda didn't sound too pleased."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbYdfYqyNX
"The way I see it, she thought Kim wasn't good enough for Leo."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqy6PcqUezK
"I wouldn't worry about 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAFpm7Pc5Y
Kim though." Carly leaned further back on the chair to relax. "For one 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpx1qJt96N
reason only. She doesn't know the truth about Leo and I."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZYJI1p5hN
"When a lady's fiancé 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJJel7gklW
dumps her on her wedding day, the lady has no other option but to think 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtZwb0r6U6
that there might be another woman."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wX3oif19k
Carly looked at Angel. "An accident happened that day."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rJArPmbaH
Angel felt like 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZD28Fna14
squeezing the life out of Carly but she looked the other way instead. 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2B1yARAevG
"Stop using the accident as a scapegoat. It's irritating."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0htTKrjAP
"Then what should I say? That Leo fell for me?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UQHi5H7x2
"Well, what do you 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFa4eKBLgSQ
think?" Angel faced her sister again. "If the accident happened and 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeOBPA64oZ
delayed the wedding, Leo would have still gotten married another day. 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodUNvNRlmE
But instead, Leo falls for you, the accident happens and then he dumps 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7cybR7I8C
Kim for good."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6vjM0WuWd
"Okay, okay, I get it," said Carly as she sat upright. She couldn't take anymore of her sister reminding her about everything.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSSIBT1Ef8
Angel placed the book 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40Zttcvedv
she was reading closed on her lap and turned the wheelchair around. She 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOxMyQN8Ar
started to wheel herself out of the room.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrR6xdUmuM
"Where are you going?" Carly asked as she looked at her sister.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoQ0zVCh1V
"Reminding you about what you've done is getting on my nerves," Angel answered as she continued on her way.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3ioYFIsFI
Carly got up from her chair and quickly rushed over to her sister, grabbing the handlebars from behind to stop her from going.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrBYqiL1hQ
"Why can't you learn to move on from all this, Angel?" Carly asked.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhJkkbPyks
"You want me to move on 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5ZmtrpTMB
after what you've done?" Angel asked without turning to look at her 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIi8iMvzsC
sister. "You not only betrayed me, but mum as well. She was right when 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPyJzCG87r
she said something was up with you the moment you came home in the early911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡre4rOy2rwB
hours of the morning and found a stash of money in your bag."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmajeq4TEUB
"What?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8IdvamQOl
Carly felt powerless as 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6Qp2jYLro
she slowly let go of the handlebars. Angel shifted a little to the side 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGJcXyl1JJ
on her chair so as to look at Carly.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPyrc28FWj
"You heard right," said Angel. "Mum had a feeling about you long before I even knew anything."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZdvXvVCmF
Carly went pale and she felt her mouth go dry. "When did she tell you this?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzovbRaGet
Angel hesitated before she answered, "the day she died."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0xp6HuU0l
Carly felt her knees 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaRrwmRabZ
lose their strength and she felt like she could drop to the floor any 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Zp1PGJoPF
moment. She took a few steps back away from the wheelchair. She felt 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPACLXKpFR
lost and confused.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcWuhslkaD
"At least you now know 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlLCy3WH1N
that mum knew something was up with you," Angel continued. "She just 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ11GYkkDuX
wasn't sure what it was. I'm glad she didn't know what you were truly up911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUPsmDDFIl
to or else that would've killed her instead."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqG0FuQDN1V
"Don't say that, Angel," said Carly. She felt like tears were about to drop down her cheeks.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpbqf4fpds
"But it's the truth." 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzF2GOnyI9
Angel fully turned her wheelchair around so as to look at Carly straight911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYBbjagv3C
in the face. "You know mum wasn't feeling too well at times and finding911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXB7J6qzlR
out what you did would've killed her. I'm glad the good Lord took her 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIinZ81HmX9
away instead because if you did you would have felt my wrath."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkzaFnuS5w
Carly flinched at her sister's words. Angel was upset for sure and Carly knew better not to say a word.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR23nTrafkz
Angel looked on at 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JAGox510K
Carly. She was one person who in the past never liked to see her sister 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDjv3ZoD28
cry. Whenever she did, Angel was always there to comfort her. But this 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhMieMGqpv
time, everything was different. She didn't even feel like hugging her 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5WEShUUZF
sister anymore.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFElCQWyiD
"I'm tired," said Angel as she looked away. "I think we've talked enough for today."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnX2XlIFFH
"Is anything the matter in here?" Amanda's voice came at the door. "I thought I heard someone shouting."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyKBOBmtqt
Angel flinched by the 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0Y88e3Svm
sound of Amanda's voice and she silently winced. She prayed that Amanda 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZMxGkbLau
hadn't heard their whole conversation.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKNrRa7qer
Angel turned the wheelchair around and saw Amanda by the door. She looked on at the two sisters with a worried look on her face.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSYJ0xsuXm
"It's nothing, Amanda," said Angel. "I was just scolding Carly for going to the mall. That's it."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZ7svFrPPe
Amanda continued to look911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkKNizN9ub
at Angel, then went on to look at Carly. For a moment, Angel was 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDnjUqTYIy
praying for Amanda to believe her. But with each dying second that 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXC345I45TL
passed, it looked like that was far from happening.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5Iltr1IvD
"Well, you should have 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvquSvKfeuH
talked to her properly, don't you think?" Amanda asked with a smile on 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIJnICieqy
her face. "Look, you almost made her cry."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxt8Wcyc1Pb
"Angel could be a bully when she wants to be," said Carly, trying to hide the hurt in her eyes.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXf4QacPCo
"I can let this go for now. But Monday, you should be getting back to school, young lady. It's important."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5DaIRB6Di
"Of course."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkcYmclwmH
"Angel only wants what's best for you. You should be considered lucky to have a sister like her."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoSOtFx7cI
Carly smiled at Amanda and said nothing more.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIMB7EEvh5
"Well, I better go and 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCuu2xRFyv
try to relax myself," said Amanda as she started to turn around in her 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAYO1suyZj
wheelchair to leave the room. "Before the evening comes, I better be on 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzi1F8TvoGH
my best behaviour."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQ5hiKQEmG
"Why do you say that?" Angel asked.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHFLijlwAq
Amanda looked at Angel. "Because my very loving daughter in law invited a guest over."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8sv9pSAlj
"You sound really sarcastic," said Carly. "And not in anyway happy."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRdbfSty3n
"You're right, dear. I'm not."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkamFYSdZC
"Could it be that you don't like who is coming?" Angel asked when she already knew the answer.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ICVIBP7iN
"It's not that I like the person. I'm just worried about Leo because it's his ex fiance coming over."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQvwj23ZQp
Carly went pale behind Angel and Angel was as still as a statue.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI68DxETi4t
"Why don't you tell Leo about this?" Angel asked.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSHrNqpvFP
"I want to but if Leo doesn't show up, his mother will know I had something to do with it," said Amanda.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaQzOtDsbI
Carly looked at Angel 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReqjSSOAGZ
who was busy contemplating over the issue. Amanda wasn't the only one 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIcmesHgA4
who didn't want Kim around here tonight. And if any one of them called 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPqE7ZBs1c
Leo, he probably wouldn't show up.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmkeS0whxp
"So, you're saying that you would rather let this happen?" Carly asked.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryyk7XevpN
"What should I do?" 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUtwxNg0yQ
Amanda asked as she shrugged her shoulders. "My hands are tied and my 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEb1z56PH0
son wouldn't like it if his wife and I argue over Leo not showing up for911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡww2vYZmPDs
dinner."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHw9259dXGj
"What if I inform Leo instead?" Carly asked.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WLRkARFXK
"Are you serious?" Angel911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJz2ZjvtpaE
asked as she looked at Carly. "You heard Amanda. Even if anyone were to911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qREJPuGLb
inform Leo, Amanda will still get blamed if he doesn't show up."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTJLQOXnbB
"Looks like someone knows Bertha more than I do," said Amanda with a sarcastic smile on her face.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaV05zf3t3
"I wouldn't like to know911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaNKAjuqcE
her, trust me," said Angel as she looked at Amanda. "But I would rather911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4z6j5gqj7T
know her now so that I won't be surprised by her temper tantrums in the911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb52BJybR2b
future."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtk5g793hu1
"I like your thinking," said Amanda. "Just don't get into any trouble with her."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQixivNDJX
"Trust me, I wouldn't," said Carly. "So, are we really going to let this slide? I mean, not tell Leo."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFTGN5kAFd
"We shouldn't," said Angel. "Because Leo's problem doesn't concern us. We only just moved in to this house."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8XJr7YHVr
"But Angel..." Carly started but Amanda interfered.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3D61wxyFdP
"She's right, Carly," said Amanda. "It's best you don't get involved."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5hH5IgbkF
Carly almost gave a 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNASiHV1ZGI
frowning look at her sister but controlled herself. She really didn't 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWs8GTbs8bT
want Leo to get here and find Kim waiting for him at the dinner table. 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYbRz0Yxdi
How she wished she could tell him what's going on, but like Amanda, she 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNjBK3L2aZ
couldn't. She didn't want Amanda to get in trouble with Leo's mother and911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiKozYy9vC
Angel would only get more upset with her than she already is.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqtg9jogKx
"I'll be going now," said Amanda. "You two take care."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRygCWigH9
Amanda turned her 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AXejHZHrx
wheelchair around and left the room. The two sisters waited for a good 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4t5MPZImzo
few minutes to make sure Amanda wasn't within earshot.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAu397pT5LW
"We've to do something, Angel," said Carly.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtD44D6quZx
"With what?" Angel asked.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsne8AKhQWO
"You know what I'm talking about. Somehow we need to let Leo know that Kim is coming here."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQ61A80OLY
"Carly, you aren't going911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqYqO1Xn6E
to call Leo. You heard Amanda. Leo's mum is like a pain in her 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBo6yRDiFLe
backside. You don't want to make it worse."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOdvttjvsM
"But aren't you scared?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9gTy7yhVD
Angel raised her eyebrow911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrecbSFvSkr
at her sister. "Oh, now you're taking my words seriously when I said we911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXDqfpbNPj
should be cautious of Kim, aren't you?"911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPhHEVCtr4
Carly didn't say anything as she continued to look at her sister.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MIWdbemTw
"I'm glad you've changed911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnC4oPA5dx
your mind," said Angel with a slight smile on her face. "Maybe you'll 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Bibe5yhFw
realise that all this isn't a joke and I was serious when I said Kim 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ulCmXsS57
would be a problem."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehox2sqr6H
"You seriously aren't going to do anything?" Carly asked.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaaoeO9wTr
"It's none of my 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5r33X1gXBW
business, Carly. Our hands are all tied here. If Kim is coming for 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiREynEZZs
dinner, she's coming and we can't do anything about it."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSrw9Nkrac
Angel made her way to the door, then she stopped.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Xy3kJJT3y
"If you dare even try to warn Leo about Kim, I'm serious, Carly, you will see the worst of me."911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvkZEpea1V
Angel's voice was stern and she didn't look at her sister as she spoke. Carly felt herself shiver to the bone.911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMtvYvSRPG
When Angel left the 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmC3pJ1zyR1
room, Carly felt helpless. There was nothing she could do about dinner 911Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgleecETb09
tonight and she had no other choice but to go with the flow.
